PRINCE - Cinnamon Girl lyrics

rate me

As war drums beat in Babylon

Cinnamon Girl starts 2 pray

Eye never heard a prayer like this one

Never b4 that day

Tearful words of love 4 people

She had never met b4

Asking God 2 grant them mercy

In this face of a holy war

Cinnamon Girl

Cinnamon Girl

Cinnamon Girl of mixed heritage

Never knew the meaning of color lines

9/11 turned that all around

When she got accused of this crime

So began the mass illusion

War on terror alibi

What's the use when the god of confusion

Keeps on telling the same lie?

Cinnamon Girl

Cinnamon Girl

Don't cry, don't shed no tears

One lie won't make us feel

'Cause we know how

This movie's ending

Cinnamon Girl

As war drums beat in Babylon

And scorch the blood red sky

Militants bomb the 4eign guns

Both sides - children die

Cinnamon girl opens the book

She knows will settle all the scores

Then she prays: after the war

That there will not b anymore

Cinnamon Girl

Cinnamon Girl

Cinnamon Girl
